Winemakers Comments and Tasting Notes
BARGAIN - 'KINKY LABELS' - It's what's on the inside that counts!
We were supplied glass bottles with an uneven surface which has led to labels sometimes 'kinking' or creasing at the edges - we don't want to sell these into restaurants or via Mail Order at full price. Instead we are offering them to exclusively via Boutique Wineries at a VERY good price.
RECOMMENDED - 2009 Decanter World Wine Awards -
‘Musk, honey, citrus, blossom. Rich and complex…
multi-layered, plush palate. Very good length’

COMMENDED - 2008 Decanter World Wine Awards, London -
'‘Oak, lemon notes on the nose. Clean, refreshing acidity.
Nicely balanced. Lemon citrus notes. Good length’
* * * *
RECOMMENDED - Louise Radman, Wine Writer, The Adelaide Magazine -
‘Vibrant and fragrant with fresh apricot, citrus, pineapple and almond nougat.
Crisp, clean lines with good concentration, lovely fruit purity and minerality.’

'This wine is without a doubt a unique and delightful addition to your cellar. With a history going back to the earliest vineyards, Viognier has deservedly developed an ardent following amongst those in the know. Lady Bay Vineyard has identified this difficult to grow varietal for special attention with a boutique vineyard devoted exclusively to developing the character and flavour of this wonderful grape. Hand picked to ensure optimum quality and left to age briefly in original oak barriques from France, this wine has been nursed to a wonderfully full floral bouquet with spicy overtones. It’s character is rounded off with a robust body and clean citrus finish overlaying fleshy fruit flavours. This full bodied wine is best enjoyed with pork, poultry or any spicy fully flavoured dish. This medal winner is available in limited supply so don’t delay staking your claim to a rare case before they’re all gone.' Boutique Wineries Review
